Hour of Code

"Think about things in your everyday life that use computer science: a cell phone, a microwave, a computer, a traffic light… all of these things needed a computer scientist to help build them.”

Or:

“Computer science is the art of blending human ideas and digital tools to increase our power. Computer scientists work in so many different areas: writing apps for phones, curing diseases, creating animated movies, working on social media, building robots that explore other planets and so much more."

ST Math (MIND)

What is ST Math ?

"In the early 1990s, three University of California researchers united in a simple yet innovative idea: let's teach math the way children learn-visually. Spatial-Temporal (ST) Math is the leader in visual math instruction and represents the highest quality and most effective blended learning math solution. Created by MIND Research Institute, ST Math is game-based instructional software for K-5 and secondary intervention and is designed to boost math comprehension and proficiency through visual learning. Integrating with classroom instruction, ST Math Incorporates the latest research in learning and the brain and promotes mastery-based learning and mathematical understanding."
